As Natalie had run away, she actually did not know what happened to Justin and Jane afterward.
Who would have thought? It seemed things got interesting after I left.
She thought the two were like fire and ice, two individuals with completely different personalities. It
surprised her that the two actually got along very well.
Then, after Justin was done expressing the joy he felt, he brought up something odd.
“Samuel, I saw one of the Leister family‘s maids today. At first, I could not recall who she was. Then it
hit me. That woman looked exactly like Yara Nichols!”
Natalie‘s heart skipped a beat when she heard that.
It was as she had thought. Justin had actually seen Yara before.
He must have remembered afterward even though he could not recognize me at first glance.
Natalie remained calm, but Samuel could still see the anxiety she was going through from her eyes.
Hence, he did not respond to what Justin had said.

Seeing Samuel‘s darkened expression, Justin realized he had just made a grave mistake. He should
not be talking about the twins‘ biological mother in front of Natalie, so he became quiet.
“Is Susan‘s birthday celebration over?” Natalie asked.
“From the front, it‘s still going on. But it‘s already over behind the scenes,” Samuel said casually with
narrowed eyes.
Once they were back at the mansion, Natalie went back to her room to rest and prepare for their return
trip to Dellmoor the next day.
However, Justin was reluctant to leave. He dragged Samuel into the study to continue the topic he
could not talk about in front of Natalie.
“Samuel, I really saw Yara at the banquet just now. On top of that, it was because of her that Jane
called me a scumbag.”
Justin was very honest about what he was saying to Samuel, but the lukewarm response he received
from his audience was totally unexpected.
“You were just seeing things.”
“No, I was not! I swear to God!” Justin exclaimed.

“That woman is currently in Dellmoor, and you‘re telling me you saw her appear at the banquet? In a
maid outfit, no less. Can‘t you hear how outrageous you are right
now?”
“I–I...” Justin was stumped and could not find anything to refute Samuel.

“You‘ve drunk a lot tonight. Go get some sleep.” Samuel patted his shoulder. “Natalie and I will be
leaving Livingsfill and heading back to Dellmoor early in the morning. Help me look after the vein
mining collaboration in the meantime and look out for the Collins family.”

“I understand.”
After that, Samuel asked Edwin to send Justin off while he slowly went upstairs.
Instead of going to his room, Samuel headed to Natalie‘s. As soon as he opened the door, he noticed

down her back, most probably to lessen the irritation of the fabric on the skin, exposing her fair and
beautiful back.
Under the warm light of the bedroom, her skin shined as though it was porcelain.
Samuel walked to her side and whispered into her ear with his deep voice, “Are you asleep? You
should get changed first.”
“Don‘t talk, Sweetheart.” Natalie turned around and murmured. “Mommy‘s very tired.”
Samuel frowned.
She thought I was Xavian.
